Plaid is HOT Right Now

By
Real Estate Agent with @Properties

In 1986 I moved into a house in Kenilworth, IL with a blue/red wool plaid rug.  I hated it.  Now, I would just rip it out but then the budget was tight and I was told it was a quality rug.  But nothing matched it and I always felt disoriented when I walked into that room.

Well, apparently now the one thing you need most in your home decor design is plaid.  My head is spinning again just thinking about it - I have virtually no plaid in my entire home!  Maybe it's the culmination of the Burberry craze - but it's being used in lots of innovative ways.

Bold plaid designs as background walls for baby rooms, a row of dining room chairs upholstered in Plaid is HOT right nowdifferent patterns of plaid yet in the same color scheme. Or just as accent pillows on current furniture.

These beautiful chairs (right) are a great play on traditional use of plaid with their differing patterns - I love that!

Margaret, I wore plaid as a child ... had too because that's what I was provided to wear.  I would not choose plaid as an adult to either wear or have in my home. It's just not for me ... I do like the row of chairs.

Kathleen Daniels - if I had had to wear plaid as a child, I probably wouldn't like it either!
